Adventists Gather - For Spiritual Camp Meeting

‘The annual meeting of the Seventh-day Adventists in Brit- ish Columbia will take place August 4 to 12 at Hope._

“This nine-day camp meet- ing avill be a time of spiritual refreshment for our members,” said:Dirk Zinner, pastor of the Castlegar - Trail Adventist Church, before leaving to help other Adventist workers pre- pare for the event.

:"We will have inspirational talks, health talks, workshops, youth activities and musical concerts. There will also be

s in cooking with vege- food and recreational

. services.” An interesting roster of

tured speakers from world

headquarters in Washington,

D.C. are Gordon Engen, asso-

Department; G. R.

; and Don Neufeld,

itor of the Adven-

the worldwide

paper of Seventh-day Adventists.

While the term “camp meeting” survives from the 19th Century, not all visitors to the British Columbia camp meeting will stay in tents, though some are planning to do just that.

‘Life After Death Gaining Believers

Life after death is no longer just a superstition—it is supported by so much data that some doctors and_ scientists whole-heartedly believe in it, says Dr. Elisabeth Kubler- Ross, an authority on death and dying. .

Dr. Kubler-Ross said she began to believe in life after death after listening to the accounts of more than 1,000 people who had almost died. She said they told her they were consciously aware of shedding their bodies and were fully aware of their surround- ings.

There was never any panic, fear or pain and they were serene and perfectly at peace, Dr. Kubler-Ross said ina speech at the University of Toronto.

“Because it has been veri- fied without a shadow of a doubt that people have the ability to shed their bodies even before the moment of death, I now have something to say to the parents of children who have been brutally murdered,” she told the audience. “At the moment of death their child was at peace with a perfectly restored body.”

Born in Switzerland, Dr. Kubler-Ross hitch-hiked to Pol- and when she was 19 to nurse victims of Second World War concentration camps. She later became a doctor.

It was while she was caring for chronic -schizophrenics in New York that she learned to trust and listen to her patients, She said she now applies this lesson to the dying.

Federal Funds Aid Year Of the Child

The federal government will contribute $1 million to the private sector for projects and activities for Canadian partici- pation in the International Year of the Child, the minister of national health and welfare announced last week.

Monique Begin anticipates the federal contribution for the International Year of the Child will be administered by a Canadian commission composed of representatives of the fed- eral and provincial govern- ments, voluntary organizations and Canadian citizens who have contributed to the improved well being of children and families.

Details of the establish- ment of the commission will be announced later this month when consultations with the provinces and the private sec- tor have been completed.

The $1 million federal con- tribution is in addition to other projects to be undertaken by federal departments as well as the administration costs of the commission. The latter will be paid for by the national health and welfare ministry.

$1,500 Damage In Two -Car Collision

Charges are pending after a two-car collision on Syringa Creek Road caused slight in- juries to three persons Sunday.

Local RCMP said a vehicle driven by Kate Gritchen of Blueberry Creek collided with a vehicle driven by Tony Owen Donald of Robson.

Police said two passengers in Donald's vehicle complained of bruises and Gritchen com- plained of a sore neck after the accident, which caused $1,500 damage.

LAB Stores: Less Service for More Money

—Reasons for the Delay—

By KEVIN McGEE

(The author, an auxillary clerk three in a Vancouver liquor store, wrote this for the Vancouver Sun.)

WHEN YOU SHOPPED in the government liquor store recently did you notice any changes? Did the store seem to be out of your favorite pro- ducts? Had that pleasant young clerk who used to help you dis- appeared? Were the. cashlers more surly than usual?

If so, the reason could be this: For the past year the powers that be in the liquor administration branch—despe- rate to justify their existence— have had a new system of staffing stores. This new sys- tem has been perfectly design- ed to give you, the tax-paying customer, less service for a lot more money.

Life’s a Rather Bad Play

In the urban jungle around me, I hear the monkeys end- lessly chattering away about “justice” and “fair play” and “human rights.” Being more interested in historical facts than ideological fantasies,’ I silently wonder who, if any- body, is in charge of the place, and if he has the guts to make decisions, right or wrong, and to make them stick.

H.W. Somerville writes from Toronto: “Has anyone noticed the vigilante mob form- ing in the Toronto board of education vowing to wipe out ‘racism’ among our school chil- dren and teachers? It seems pupils are to be expelled, teachers fired and books burn- ed at the slip of a tongue. No question, of course, of letting little things like truth and free speech get in the way of our fearless trustees (particularly fearless in an election year) who are determined that such evils as the Spanish Inquisition, the Indian Mutiny and the Boxer Rebellion, etc., shall not be allowed to sully young minds. One wonders who will emerge as the hero in this Brave New World, Wolfe or

Montealm? Will the English be seen as the brutal aggressors who destroyed New France? Or will the French be seen as the heartless imperialists who wiped out the Iroquois? Or will the Iroquois be denounced as the merciless savages “who destroyed Huronia? If every- body was benevolent, certainly the child is going to wonder why the Indians aren't still in charge? It remains to be seen whether the public that raised hell over the banning of the movie, Pretty’ Baby, will hold still for revisionist brainwash- ing of their children—and whether Canadian courts will uphold the pretentions and effrontery of the Toronto board of education.” Note from RJN: Following on from Mr. Somer- ville’s letter, I'd advise people, “educationists” especially, to read. Herbert Butterfield's modern classic, Christianity and History. ‘He makes the point in it that there are no “good” nations or races, all have gone ghastly things in the past and are perfectly capable of doing them again.—“What history uncovers is man’s uni- versal sin.” * a An old Yankee saying has it that if there is one lawyerina town, he's poor; if there are two lawyers in a’ town, both are rich.

are all those people you see working in liquor stores who wear clothes other than cream-colored shirts or business suits,

The ones in the suits are loosely called supervisors. The ones in the cream-colored shirts are called permanent staff. Auxiliaries are the people in the LAB with whom you, the public, most often come: in contact. When you are in a liquor store it is probable that your cashier and the people you see filling shelves are auxi- liaries.

NOWISHALL ATTEMPT to explain the problem.

In the past two years, the |

number of auxiliaries in any given store has been roughly halved. This is a result of two things: 1} The government is trying to crank even more money out of the liquor busi- ness than the already out- rageous profits it realizes; and 2) at present there is an absurd formula in use which deter- mines the number of workers in a store for any given week,

NUMBER ONE IS SELF- explanatory, but I would like to clarify number two.

This formula, as far as I can tell, assigns a certain number of minutes to perform any given task. According to the amount of business a store does it is given a maximum number of man-hours to accom- plish these tasks. It is quite

liquor store where business is so slow on week nights that there are always two super- visors standing on the floor doing little more than growing older.

It Wasn't The Right Kind Of Mistake

(An editorial in the Van- couver Sun.)

Violence is human nature— you can't legislate against hu- man nature.

—ZJohn Ziegler, president, National Hockey League

Don Murdoch, the young hockey star from Cranbrook who has been suspended for a year from playing in the NHL after pleading guilty to pos- session of cocaine, says he made a mistake. Obviously it’ wasn't the right kind of mistake.

If he had gone out on to the “ice and beaten another player's brains out, he might have fared better. By Mr. Ziegler's defini- tion, that would have been only human nature.

It seems taking drugs, or at least getting caught with them, isn't human nature. But hypocrisy, as Mr. Ziegler has

probably Pp de

and on paper seems quite efficient. However the origina- tors of this formula are ob- viously completely.out of touch with the realities of a liquor store.

TO ILLUSTRATE | shail use the Kerrisdale liquor store as an example.

The bulk of its clientele are -retired pensioners, This results in the following (through no fault of theirs): 1) They take much longer to get through a sale—simply to get out their money, put away their change and move past the till; 2) they need a great deal of assistance in finding products; and 3) they frequently need help in getting their purchases out of the store.

I KNOW FOR A FACT that none of this is in the staffing formula. Asa result the staff of that store is working at

maximum capacity to stay two *

days behind what should be accomplished. The end result is constantly barren shelves, ab-

is very much a part of it. $

AS SHOWN BY THESE two examples, different stores require different staff, and the people best qualified to deter- mine that staff are the super. visors of the i stores,

not some cockamamie formula. This, in fact, is the way it used to be, and the stores were then much more efficient.

The final problem is man- agement’s treatment of auxi- liaries. Because of the drastic cut in work available for auxi- liaries, most of them find them- selves working in a minimum of four, and as many as seven, different liquor stores each month.

THIS OPENS ANOTHER can of worms,

Every store is unique, with its own routines, warehouse layouts and shelf placements. Just when- an auxiliary is getting familiar with a store, he or she is packed off to another one to learn a complete new set of procedures. The inefficiency of this practice should be ob- vious. Also, when an auxiliary moves from a store with an easy discipline lo one that is strict, he or she tends to take it out on the customers.

1 HAVE ONLY TOUCHED the surface of the liquer store management problem, but you may now have a better under- standing of what the LAB is doing to its staff, and to you.
